Chapter 808: Yi'a Strategy
"As long as the People's Party can exert its organizational strength, with the Iraqi Communist Party in the west, the Afghan People's Party in the east, and the Communist Party of the Soviet Union in the north, are you afraid that you will not be able to win? All ideals must be based on victory, without which all ideals are nothing more than illusions. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoYour indecision will only lead to the defeat of the revolutionary cause, and, like the comrades of many countries, you will end up in the gallows. Serov's face was cold, and he didn't seem to take to heart how many people would die because of his ideas.
If someone must die, the General Political Commissar certainly hopes that it will be the hostile forces who will die. He was not trying to frighten the comrades of the Iranian People's Party, and once it continued, the Iranian regime banned its own communist organization, the People's Party, and ordered eighteen Soviet diplomats to leave Iran a few years later. Seventy communist leaders were arrested for treason, 150,000 supporters were suppressed, and the party was devastated. In response to the Islamic Republic of Iran's anti-American and anti-Soviet policies, most of the Iranian Communists, who refused to give in, had to go into exile.
What's so good about going into exile, the Soviet Union had such a great geographical advantage that it could fully support the Iranian People's Party in fighting a civil war. The Iranian People's Party is not without the strength of the First World War, and the worst result is that the plan to provoke the Indo-Pakistani war will be postponed first, and Iraq and Afghanistan will be instigated to attack Iran from east to west, anyway, the political situation in Iran is out of control, and in a state of scattered sand, it is completely left to Serov how to rub it, as long as those religious leaders cannot unite, there is nothing to be afraid of in this country.
"The fateful moment has really come, Chairman Serov, the USSR will not abandon us, right?" After a brief discussion, an Iranian People's Party cadre asked. It is not uncommon for the Soviet Union to finally be instigated, and the Iranian People's Party once personally learned about it. The northern part of Iran was quickly pacified by the Pahlavi after the Soviet withdrawal, and it took a long time for the Iranian People's Party to recover, and it might not have been possible to recover it if it had not been for the bankruptcy of the countryside and the emergence of the working class caused by the White Revolution.
"Now it is completely different from twenty years ago, there is no big gap between the Soviet Union and the United States, and we are closer!" Serov said with a smile on the corner of his mouth, "What are you afraid of, with the support of three million working classes, there are a large number of bankrupt peasants waiting for you to change your destiny and control the Iranian people's own wealth in their own hands, and in the worst case there is the support of Iraq, Afghanistan and our Soviet Union, so many conditions are complete, how can you lose?" ”
"We get it, maybe this time we can make a difference in Iran." In the end, these Persians still chose to believe in the Soviet Union once, as the other side said, more than 20 years have passed, and the world has changed. Now it is not just one badly wounded Soviet Union, but a large number of socialist countries.
"You will not be disappointed, today in the USSR is your tomorrow." Serov laughed and said that for many of the Soviet Union's neighbors, the United States and Western Europe were too far away for them to see. In fact, there is still a gap between Eastern Europe and Western Europe, between the Soviet Union and the United States, but for these third world countries, the current state of the Soviet Union is enough to make them envious. This is true in Afghanistan, and it is also true in Iran.
Of course, it was Iraq that touched Iran's pro-socialists the most, and the two countries are neighbors. In the same way, with the export of oil as its main income, and at the same time using the oil revenues to develop industry, it is clear that Iraq's life is much better than that of Iran. Compared with Iran, Iraq has the most advantages in terms of fairness, and at the same time, the social welfare system is much stronger than Iran.
The most important thing is that Iraq's income is very average, and it is as much as it is. Behind every high-rise building in Iran there are several times as many people living in poverty. Can't I say that Pahlavi has 5 billion, I have 50 yuan, and the average of two people is 2.5 billion assets per person, right? The life of ordinary people, Iranians are obviously much harder.
It would be nice if Iraq's conditions were much better than Iran's, but this is not the case at all, although Iran is a plateau country, it is far more than Iraq in terms of various minerals and its own land, and a large part of Iraq's desert areas exist, and only the two river basins are suitable for living. The conditions are better than the other party, but they are not as good as the other party, which is very unspeakable.
Serov naturally didn't know this idea of the Iranians, and he didn't expect that the Iraqis could become the idols of the Iranians even a little bit, which is completely a mistake in historical inertial thinking, and sometimes even he forgets that Iraq in this time and space is already a socialist country, and it also has a certain influence in the Middle East.
His meeting with the Iranian People's Party was very short, after all, the meeting between the two sides at this time was relatively sensitive, and Iran had always been wary of the Soviet Union, and this vigilance was very reasonable. If you have the opportunity to benefit from this, why not step in? Do you really think that the Soviet Union can only play internationalism? He, Serov, is an expert in playing social-imperialism.
While President Carter is ready to abandon Pahlavi to save Iran, Serov is also ready to see if the United States can intervene across the ocean again. Both the Soviet Union and the United States have found their own proxies and are ready to fight it out in Iran.
Three days after the meeting between Baku and the Iranian People's Party, the Iranian People's Party suddenly launched a nationwide general strike because of the death of the religious leader, which instantly swept the country from Mashhad. The situation in Iran has shifted to a new phase of confrontation between the military and police and large trade unions. On the 16th, the king, under pressure, announced a limited amnesty for the release of a number of political prisoners. The Ba'ath Party was reorganized into the New Socialist Party.
While the United States was planning an operation to get the Pahlavi Shah out of the way, Serov, who had returned to Moscow, began to draw up plans to prepare for the discoloration of Iran and submit them to a meeting of the Presidium of the Central Committee of the Soviet Union.
"From the current situation, we can be sure that Iran's anti-American opinion is the mainstream public opinion, and even the Americans dare not get involved, so in a sense, it is very feasible to pull out the Persian Gulf police in the two-column strategy of the United States." At the meeting of the Presidium of the Central Committee, Serov, who was holding the plan, made an impassioned speech, telling the group of old guys that they were still working and that this wave of strategic offensive was not over.
As for why Iran is anti-American, the reason is simple. In fact, the United States, Britain and the Soviet Union all oppressed Iran when they were in Iran, the Soviet army supported satellite states in Azerbaijan and Kurdistan, and supported the Iranian People's Party to make trouble internally, Britain built oil companies in the south and made a windfall, and the Americans were a little more civilized, stationed in the capital, buying and selling publicly, but they also liked to hold balls in US military clubs and soak Persian beauties.
From a national point of view, it should be the Soviet Union that is the most feared, followed by Britain, and finally the United States. But don't forget that the state is made up of people, and from the perspective of ordinary people, this is completely reversed, the Soviet Union's oppression of Iran is at the national level, and the British plundering of Iran is at the economic level, both of which are too far from ordinary people. But the style of the United States that can't control its crotch everywhere is the biggest irritation for ordinary people, not to mention that the religious atmosphere in Iran is so strong.
If the Iranians had a knife in their hands, one out of a hundred would probably have hacked the Soviets because of the humiliation of the country. There are ten people who were taken away by the British because of the money and cut the British, but no one can stand the beautiful girl in their country being used as a toilet by foreigners, and if there is a chance, a hundred Iranians will choose to cut the Americans.
In a peaceful country, the Americans relied on two stinky money to make humanoid self-propelled cannons everywhere, and quickly replaced Britain and the Soviet Union as the first place that the Iranians wanted to kill the most, not to mention that the Soviet Union and Britain have retreated one after another, and the Americans are still relying on it.
"Talk about specific plans, Yura!" Some old Brezhnev said slowly, as if he was interested in the KGB's big plan, in fact, Brezhnev did not stay in the position of general secretary, just wanted to make the Soviet Union he led stronger and remembered by history.
"The collapse of the order in Iran may have repercussions in neighboring countries, after all, Iran's religious leaders want to establish a theocratic government, which is clearly not good for us, and that's why I'm intervening. Moreover, the situation in Afghanistan is also unstable, and Iran cannot be allowed to fall into the hands of religious elements. Of course, at the same time, pro-Western parties are not an option for me to consider. Take advantage of this opportunity to resolve the issues of Afghanistan and Iran together. "Nominally, our main forces are invested in Iran, but in fact we are buying time for Amin to stabilize the situation in Afghanistan. Let all eyes be on Iran, using Afghanistan and Iraq as bases to take out religious elements and pro-Western parties. ”
"But now the Pahlavi dynasty still has an army of 700,000, which is second to none in the Middle East." Kirilenko shook his head and said, "Isn't it a bit risky to support Amin in taking out the separatist forces in Afghanistan while you are also focusing on Iran?" ”
"The army of 700,000 was made up of a single individual, and Germany's defeat in World War I was due to the revolt of Kiel's sailors. The plutocrats also need to choose people from the people to carry guns to protect them, and now in terms of the intensity of the opposition to the demonstrations, no one knows how many people in the army of 700,000 ordinary people are willing to protect the government. Serov said meaningfully, "And Pahlavi may be in a hurry at the moment!" ”
It would be better to solve the problems of Iran and Afghanistan together, preferably in two countries at the same time. A follow-up plan could well support the new Iranian government's annexation of Bahrain as a tool to establish new authority for the new government. Iran's current turmoil could also serve as a cover for Afghanistan's military build-up, which in the name of a religious threat would make Pakistan less vigilant. It also helps with follow-up planning. (To be continued.) )
